Oh look, it’s Laurent’s wife.

Drabble Requested by Lia. Characters Maya and Kate Tigger: death.

“What are you doing here?”

The words left her lips sharper then she had wanted them to and Maya was suddenly cursing herself for even answering the door. Sebastian’s eye brow arched for a moment washing away the concern that was etched do deeply into his bones that, it made Maya sick. He walked past her his eyes darting around the room looking for something. Someone. That wasn’t to be found.

“What do you mean what am I doing here." He was clearly taken back by her words. Seb shook his head clearly annoyed. "Have you seen Kathryn? She never showed up in days.”

“Why would I? I ha- She’s probably off with Claire somewhere. Why don’t you call her?”

“You’re acting weird Alliot. What’s going on?”

“Why does something have to be going on huh? What am I everyone’s fucking keeper.”

Maya ran her hands over her face before turning her back to him. The words fuck leaving her lips silently. She made her way towards the bar picking up a bottle of scotch, and poured herself a drink but didn’t offer him one. She didn’t want him to stay. Couldn't afford for him to stay. Maya’s eyes still diverted him. She spun the liquid in the glass before taking a sip her eyes falling on him.

For the first time she really looked at him. He looked tired. Hair wasn’t brushed and styled like normal. His shirt had a stain on it and his knuckles looked bruised. Maya’s shifted from him quickly, fuck Kate for putting her in this position. Seb rolled his eyes again before looking towards the bathroom, before heading towards it. Maya placed the glass down with a bang before darting towards him. Her voice was filled with panic as she called after him."What are you doing?"

"Trying to piss."

"You can't do that."

"Yeah why not?" Um... Maya pressed her lips together. Because there's a body in the tub. That was something she surely couldn't say to him. Maya released his arm slowly. "S-sorry its broken. The one down stairs works fine though."

Maya pushed Sebastian towards the door with out saying anything else. When he was gone Maya put the glass down quickly locked the door before heading to the bathroom. Sebastian's last words echoed into his head. Fuck you. He didn't understand though. No one would ever understand. Slowly his words disappeard and Kate's entered. You can’t tell anyone, promise me you wont. If you do I’ll fucking haunt you. Maya had made a promise. One that would stay with her forever. 

She was welcomed by the stench of death. The blood had already started to settle making the half of Kate’s body closes to the ground turn a blueish color. Her whole body had already held a purplish red discoloration. Had rigger not set in she would have moved Kate by herself but who was she to call to help dispose of her without exposing that Kate was gone.

Disposed of her as if she was nothing. As if Maya didn't care but she did care. If she hadn't she wouldn't be honoring her wishes. Still though the thoughts made Maya sick and sent her straight towards the toilet. The bile rose in her throat coming out violently and leaving her weaker than she ever felt before. Maya’s hands shook so hard she had barely been able push herself up off the cold bathroom floor. Her mascara stained her cheeks, blurring her eye sight and making it hard for her to see. The back of Maya’s hand came up and wiped her mouth. The taste of bile in her mouth and her nose. There was a small splotch on her shoe that she hadn’t noticed as she flushed the toilet and dropped against the bath door. Her eyes falling onto the body of the woman she considered her friend.
